November 27 - Alabama A&M linebacker Medrick Burnett Jr. died Tuesday night due to a head injury sustained exactly one month earlier in a game against Alabama State. He was 20. Alabama A&M announced Burnett's death on Wednesday. "Today, our Bulldog family is heartbroken by the loss of Medrick Burnett Jr.," Alabama A&M athletic director Dr. Paul A. Bryant said in a statement. "Medrick was more than an exceptional athlete; he was a remarkable young man whose positive energy, leadership, and compassion left an indelible mark on everyone who knew him. While words cannot adequately express our grief, we are humbled by the strength of his family, who stood by his side throughout this unimaginable ordeal. "We extend our deepest condolences and prayers to Medrick's parents, siblings, and loved ones. We also offer our heartfelt support to his teammates, coaches, and the entire Alabama A&M community who are mourning this loss. In this moment of sorrow, we come together to honor Medrick's legacy and celebrate the light he brought to our lives." According to a GoFundMe page from his sister, Dominece James, Burnett was injured in a head-to-head collision in the 27-19 loss against Alabama State in the Magic City Classic at Birmingham. She displayed a hospital picture showing her brother heavily inundated with tubes and other equipment. James said her brother had severe brain swelling and bleeding. WAFF-TV in Huntsville, Ala., displayed a video of the play in which he was hurt, though it is unclear exactly how he was injured so severely. The footage also showed Burnett being taken off the field on a stretcher. Burnett gave a thumbs-up to the crowd while being wheeled off. According to the station, Burnett's condition worsened in the days following the game. Burnett, a redshirt freshman from Lakewood, Calif., had five tackles in seven games this season. He was a transfer from Grambling State. Alabama A&M (6-5) is scheduled to play at Florida A&M on Friday. --Field Level Media Our Standards: The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles. , opens new tabKUWAIT CITY, Dec 23: The Kuwait Institute for Scientific Research (KISR) has completed an innovative research project titled, “Developing Performance Features for Using Integrated Solar-Powered Air-Gap Membrane Distillation Technology for Desalination of Seawater in Kuwait.” This project focused on developing and testing a solar-powered air-gap membrane distillation system for seawater desalination. A test unit was installed at the KISR-affiliated desalination research station, equipped for experimental purposes. Led by scientific researchers Dr. Garudachari Bhadrachari and Dr. Mansour Ahmed, alongside the director of the Water Desalination Technologies Program at the Water Research Center affiliated with KISR; the project includes the assessment of the technology’s performance under real-world conditions in Kuwait. The system utilized Arabian Gulf seawater as feedwater for the pilot unit. The project met its objectives by establishing a comprehensive knowledge base on the performance of the pilot unit under realistic operating conditions. Experimental results demonstrated that the membrane distillation system could produce 23.42 liters of fresh water per day. Furthermore, a conceptual design for large-scale production was developed, using the experimental results along with mathematical modeling and simulations to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of scaling the technology at various operating capacities. The system offers several social and economic benefits; such as the development of local expertise, enhanced water security, and reduced environmental impacts. It is especially well-suited for remote areas and can be scaled up to meet growing water demands. The researchers recommended further pilot-scale testing of the technology in conjunction with renewable energy and waste heat recovery to reduce energy consumption. The technology demonstrated promising results in reducing blockages, salt deposits and corrosion; which can extend the life of membranes and reduce the need for chemical additives compared to traditional reverse osmosis systems.
